Well it needs about 10k in work the way it sits. Looks like the dealer isn't wanting to acknowledge my warranty.

Explain the $10k number. Gaskets and trans can be had for much cheaper. You just need to call me.

Things are looking good with the trans now. Hopefully they take care of me.

No at ford. I bought this trans in november with a 3yr warranty. Can't afford a trans right now. I'm ****ed if they don't acknowledge my warranty.

Ohh I was under the impression that they were going to take care of the labor or something.. And you just had to get it there.

Dammit man that's a bummer.. You still up north or are you down in Florida? If your down here, I could give you a hand if you need it.. I'll be leaving in 6ish weeks to go meet goofball Cody in Texas for work.

I'm in nc still. Should be making a trip home in a couple months. Going to get the truck towed up to twisted if ford doesn't acknowledge this.

Bought a Holley red electric fuel pump. Good for 100gph at 7psi. It was 65 shipped brand new so I'm going to give it a shot feeding the stocker.

New (used) trans is going in over the next few days. If it feels strong I'm going to try and make a pass Friday.

Hopefully you get it running good man hate to see all these problems

swinky · Apr 20, 2014

It's gonna come back stronger. I need to overbuild everything to accommodate for my driving style.

That being said I'm gonna get a good burnout vid right before the twisted stage 3 goes in.

I was checking out that trans a little while ago. What hp is it supposed to be good for? Hopefully it'll be a while before I need one but just wanna have all my stuff in line

I'd say around 700. Depends on driving habits but I told Daryl that I'd like to be around 650 and sled pull and drag race and he said it will hold a 3yr warranty if I do have any issues.
